Continuous Passive Motion Versus Heterotopic Ossification
The investigators hypothesize that Heterotopic Ossification (HO) formation can be suppressed if the application of a Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) device can be performed for a substantial amount of time. The investigators will use the following study design: a pilot study with 10 ICU patients receiving CPM and 10 matched …
EVOKE ECAP-Controlled Lead Placement and Programming in Chronic Pain Patients
This study is designed to evaluate the feasibility of using intra-operative ECAP and Late-Response (LR) recordings for confirmation of activating the neuronal target of the dorsal column in a single-stage SCS lead placement procedure. The collected ECAP and LR data will be analysed post-hoc to further evaluate its utility for …
Precise Robotically IMplanted Brain-Computer InterfacE
The PRIME Study is a first-in-human early feasibility study to evaluate the initial clinical safety and device functionality of the Neuralink N1 Implant and R1 Robot device designs in participants with tetraparesis or tetraplegia. The N1 Implant is a skull-mounted, wireless, rechargeable implant connected to electrode threads that are implanted …
Chronic Transcutaneous Stimulation to Promote Motor Function and Recovery in Individuals With Paralysis or Paresis
This is an early feasibility trial to determine whether transcutaneous neuromuscular electrical stimulation, with or without transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation, using an investigational neurostimulation device improves functional arm/hand movements in individuals with paralysis or paresis due to a spinal cord injury or stroke and improves functional arm/hand or leg/foot movements …
Feasibility of the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System in Persons With Tetraplegia
The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary device safety information and demonstrate proof of principle (feasibility) of the ability of people with tetraplegia to control a computer cursor and other assistive devices with their thoughts.
Feasibility of the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System in Persons With Tetraplegia (BG-Speech-02)
The goal of this study is to improve our understanding of speech production, and to translate this into medical devices called intracortical brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) that will enable people who have lost the ability to speak fluently to communicate via a computer just by trying to speak.
Safety and Effectiveness of Spatial StimelMD (SSMD) in Subjects With Upper Limb Neuromotor Impairments
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the Spatial StimelMD (SSMD) device for upper-limb neuromotor rehabilitation in adults with impairment following stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI). Participants will be randomized to receive either SSMD therapy plus standard rehabilitation care or standard functional …
The Utilization Effects of Powered Wearable Orthotics in Improving Upper Extremity Function and ADL in Persons With SCI
To evaluate the usefulness of an upper extremity assistive device, called (MyoPro) in improving upper extremity activities in people with incomplete spinal cord injury. The Department of Defense is supporting this study.
Comparing Upper Limb Surgery and Botulinum Toxin for Spasticity: A Paired Design Study
Spasticity is a common complication following central nervous system injuries. Left untreated, spasticity can lead to various complications, hindering activities of daily living and diminishing independence. Spasticity affecting the hand is particularly debilitating because it prevents prehension and grasp, which are critical factors for the ability to perform activities of …
Nerve Transfer to Improve Function in High Level Tetraplegia
The goal of this observational study is to determine if nerve transfer surgeries improve upper extremity function and quality of life in patients with a high level cervical spinal cord injury. Participants will: undergo standard of care pre- and post-op testing and study exams complete pre- and post-questionnaires undergo standard …
